"Cough." Kamiyagawa cleared his throat slightly, "Everyone worked hard in the battle at the Ikusaka Inn..."
The award ceremony to recognize bravery and distribute rewards began in earnest, and Kamiyagawa gave out a wave of candles to the youkai.
Such a reward of candles was most motivating to the non-Shikigami youkai.
Except for the Zashiki, since Fukitaku had already become a secondary god in Mary's Shikigami, having consumed the high-level experience pack early on.
The likes of Little Old Man, Biyobou, and Baka were also very happy to receive candles.
Especially Baka.
This little youkai had performed much better in this battle than in the last one, although still a bit timid, it followed Kamiya's commands to the letter, attacking wherever directed.
It even "cooperatively" acted as a tool for the little Baku.
